In the future, long-established paradigms of production will still have to continue to change in order to meet the demand for even more individuality, customer-specific product variants and shortest delivery times within ...

This work presents an assessment of schools’ indoor environmental quality, based on investigations carried out in three Italian classrooms in Treviso, in the North-East of Italy. A first monitoring campaign was performed ...

At today, smart, and cheap mechatronic devices together with open-source software allow to design and prototype new and effective systems or at least to apply existing platforms to new fields. In this work, starting from ...

Complexities emerge both on theoretical and practical levels as soon as auto-sustaining river restoration of heavily modified alpine rivers segments is urgently required and socially desired.Distances and deviations ...

The Bass diffusion equation, which is an effective forecasting tool for innovation diffusion based on large collections of empirical data, assumes an homogeneous diffusion process. We introduce for the first time a network ...

Software licenses determine, from a legal point of view, under which conditions software can be integrated, used, and above all, redistributed. Licenses evolve over time to meet the needs of development communities and to ...

This part provides a series of applications of some of the methods reported in the Part 1. The document is organised in three chapters. In Chapter 1, the Morphological Quality Index (MQI) and the Morphological Quality Index ...

Code smells are symptoms of poor design and implementation choices that may hinder code comprehension and possibly increase change- and fault-proneness of source code. Several techniques have been proposed in the literature ...

Software evolution often leads to the degradation of software design quality. In Object-Oriented (OO) systems, this often results in packages that are hard to understand and maintain, as they group together heterogeneous ...

In recent years mobile devices became the way of choice for consuming digital content. One of the areas in which this monumental shift has a great impact that creates a lot of opportunities and challenges is tourism. ...

Dynamic energy simulation has the potential to provide relevant information about building energy behavior. However detailed models require an increased number of input data, which sometimes can undermine the accuracy of ...

This work is concerned with classifying Web job advertisements against a standard classification system of occupations, by applying and comparing different text classification techniques. As a first step, we evaluated the ...

Recommender Systems represent useful tools helping users to find "what they need" from a very large number of candidates and supporting people in making decisions in several contexts. In this paper, we propose a novel ...

The Directive 31/2010 has recommended to the Member States to establish new minimum energy performance requirements according to the cost-optimal approach both for new buildings and renovation. According to the Commission ...
